Chapter 2 To Sparta
But for the time being, it's useless to think about so much, like this kind of reckless battle, if you have some modern weapons, it may be easy to deal with, but although this is the case, the cost of those weapons is also very high, maybe some contractors will have a small number of heavy weapons, but it is still difficult to form the kind of firepower that can attack hundreds of thousands of people.
And in this world with a difficulty of LV9 to LV16, it is uncertain whether those weapons can exert the power they should have, and maybe those bullets are not as sharp as the swords in their hands.
After observing the surrounding environment, Li Xiang was ready to leave this house, it was not a way to stay here all the time, and Lucy felt that there seemed to be a person waiting outside, Li Xiang, who didn't know the situation here for the time being, was completely about to learn about the situation here through this person and then find the way to Sparta.
Si, thinking of asking for directions Li Xiang seems to have thought of something that is not a very good memory, it is really a not very good memory, it took so much time to ask for directions once, fortunately the problem was solved in the end, otherwise Li Xiang felt that he was afraid that he would not collapse.
After opening the door, Li Xiang saw a young man sitting outside, this was a young man who looked like he should be eighteen years old, holding a spear in his hand, and a short sword pinned to his waist, although this kid Li Xiang could solve him with one move, but his physical fitness was indeed very good, it should be about the same as those werewolves who had not transformed in the dark world, around twenty points.
If this world is of this nature, then this world is indeed very dangerous, to know that there are hundreds of thousands of troops fighting between them, although they may not have so many troops on their side, but the enemy is a Persian army of 500,000, if they are facing hundreds of thousands of enemies whose physical fitness is as strong as the young man in front of them, Li Xiang feels that they have no chance of winning.
However, this probability should be very small, the muscles of the young man in front of Lucy are punctured, and the huge size is so eye-catching, this kind of robust physique should not be very much even in the army, at least at the level of a squad leader.
"Your Lord, do you want to go to breakfast? They have prepared food for you. ”
After seeing Li Xiang come out of the room, the young man said to Li Xiang in a very kind tone, but Li Xiang obviously felt that there was a trace of respect in the young man's tone, could this be the follower that the legion had gifted? Looking at this physique, it's pretty good, but this time the legion has finally opened up? Want to add a little perk to yourself?
Li Xiang raised his head at this time, it happened to be not long after the sun came out, and it should be time to eat breakfast at this time, but Li Xiang didn't really want to experience the customs and customs here for the time being, Li Xiang didn't think that there was anything good in ancient Greece at that time, but seeing that the young man was so enthusiastic Li Xiang still nodded and followed behind the young man.
Similar to what Li Xiang imagined, this is indeed the followers that the legion equipped Li Xiang, but it is different from Li Xiang's impression, the identities that these contractors enter are all nobles in some places, otherwise it will not meet the later setting that you can summon soldiers and fight with your own soldiers.
And this teenager is called Avalon, yes, it's called Avalon, isn't it a very familiar feeling? But that's really his name, it doesn't matter what the name is, the important thing is that this guy's combat effectiveness is very good.
It is said that after his father's professional training, Li Xiang's territory has not been able to beat him, but he can't beat it here, but he really can't beat it, you must know that there are many benefits to following Li Xiang's side, naturally many people want to be Li Xiang's personal guard, but Avalon can still be Li Xiang's personal guard under the competition of so many people, and it is still very level.
However, this kind of small place actually does not reflect much strength, Li Xiang's territory is a place the size of a small town, if it weren't for the legion saying that this is his fiefdom, Li Xiang would have thought that this is a broken village somewhere, although he instigated a town, but this is similar to a slightly larger village, and even more dilapidated in some places, and Li Xiang's house is the best house in the whole village.
As the lord, Li Xiang can directly sign his subordinates from this village, but there are really few qualified talents here, otherwise why can Avalon be a personal guard for so long?
The saddest point is that as a lord who inherited the territory, Li Xiang actually did not inherit any wealth from his ancestors, Li Xiang's only wealth may be his broken house and this territory, as for wealth, there is none.
In addition to these, there may be a title called Glory Knight that can be obtained, and it is said that only those who have made great contributions will have this kind of glory, Li Xiang guessed that this should be the effect of the so-called World A prestige +1, and I haven't seen any effect yet.
After following Avalon to the dining place, looking at the food on the table, Li Xiang instantly lost his appetite for food, well... Li Xiang didn't dislike the food was not delicious, it was just that Li Xiang was simply not hungry, yes, that's right, Li Xiang was simply not hungry.
"I suddenly don't feel like I want to eat much, so let's eat these things, or it's a waste."
Li Xiang looked at Avalon beside him and an aunt standing at the dining table and said, this aunt is his housekeeper and cook, you have to ask why the housekeeper is not a man, how do I know, anyway, according to the memory given to Li Xiang by the legion, this aunt is Li Xiang's identity of the housekeeper and chef Lelah, as for whether there is a male housekeeper together, there must be, but after that, he left after no gold coins to pay for it, after all, people also have to support their families.
Avalon showed an excited look in the corners of his eyes after hearing Li Xiang's words, but he still glanced at the aunt at the table, who was Li Xiang's housekeeper, and then got the nod from Aunt Lila before he began to gobble up and began to eat, which is also the benefit of being the lord's personal guard, you can enjoy better food, but in the past, they could only eat it after the lord finished eating.
"Are you worried about the Persian demons and the Spartan affair?"
Aunt Lila didn't gobble it up with Avalon, but walked up to Li Xiang, who was thinking, and asked carefully, as a lord's butler and cook, he naturally knows some things that ordinary people don't know, and he naturally knows about the recent uproar in Persia and Sparta, and when he saw Li Xiang frowning at this time, he naturally thought that Li Xiang was distressed because of that matter.
Li Xiang was stunned for a moment when he heard Aunt Lila's words, then nodded and replied: "Yes, Aunt Lila, you should have heard about it, the Persians are coming, they are not good people." ”
"Yes, I heard that it seems to be an army of five million, so many people are afraid it will be difficult for us to resist, I don't know if he will invade the territory of the adults at that time."
Aunt Lila said worriedly as she looked in the direction of the Persian attack, with a worried look on her brows.
"It should be fine, Sparta seems to have been recruiting people to resist the Persians recently, and I plan to go over and take a look."
Hearing Li Xiang's words, Aunt Lila panicked suddenly, and hurriedly grabbed Li Xiang's arm with his greasy hands, and said loudly: "My lord, you must not think so, the battlefield is very dangerous, your father asked me to take care of you before he died, if you go to the battlefield, I have three long and two short, how can I explain it." ”
Although it didn't feel very comfortable to be dragged by Aunt Lila, Li Xiang felt a long-lost care from Aunt Lila, that kind of care was so real, so real that Li Xiang even felt that what Aunt Lila said seemed to be very reasonable.
It's not that Aunt Lila used any skills or anything like that, it's just that Li Xiang felt very uncomfortable being cared for all of a sudden.
"It's okay, Aunt Lila, I've been able to protect myself well after learning swordsmanship over the years, and I don't necessarily have to go to the battlefield then, maybe the battle will be over when we arrive."
Li Xiang held Aunt Lila's hand tightly, although there were a lot of greasy on his hands that had not been wiped clean before, Li Xiang did not feel uncomfortable at all, but felt that these hands were so kind.
Maybe it was because she saw the persistence in Li Xiang's eyes, Aunt Lila didn't continue to insist after thinking about it for a while, sighed and said to Li Xiang: "Okay, you are the same as your father, he was also so righteous at that time, but you must protect yourself, if you don't protect yourself well, your aunt will definitely beat you." ”
Aunt Lila pretended to be angry and looked at Li Xiang and said, but after hearing these words, Li Xiang's heart suddenly felt a burst of warmth, it has been a long time.
"My lord, I'm going too."
At this time, Avalon, who had been gobbling up before, suddenly spoke, and at this time, Avalon stared at Li Xiang with a pair of big eyes, and even forgot to wipe the food in his mouth, if this eye was seen by Li Ronghao, would it raise the question that this kind of eye really exists in the world.
"Why?"
In fact, Li Xiang didn't really want Avalon to go to the battlefield, because he was too weak, although his physical fitness was very good, after meeting Aunt Lila, Li Xiang also knew what kind of physical fitness ordinary people here were, almost more than ten points of physical fitness, compared to ordinary people, Avalon is very good, but compared to the real top fighters, he is still too weak.
At least Li Xiang is sure to cut off his head with a knife now, what can he do if he goes to the battlefield with this kind of strength? Did you give away your head in the past?
"My father was a great Spartan warrior, although he and my mother left Sparta before, but in his heart he still regarded himself as a real Spartan warrior, this time he was going to fight by himself, died on the battlefield as a Spartan warrior, but his body could no longer hold on, so I wanted to fulfill his wish."
Avalon said with a righteous face, and wiped the food from his mouth as he spoke, looking at his resolute face, Li was ready to refuse him without even thinking about it.
Just kidding, just for the sake of a so-called Spartan dream to go over and die? Anyway, you're also my follower, okay, can you not be so brainless? If Avalon's victory was very strong, Li Xiang wouldn't mind letting him do this, but his strength really didn't support him to go like this, so his best choice was not to go, as for the glory of Sparta above, if her father died, wouldn't he have to abide by it?
But just as Li Xiang was about to reject him, the voice of the legion appeared in time to stop Li Xiang.
【Trigger the hidden quest Glory of Sparta】
Hidden Mission: Glory of Sparta
Difficulty: LV5~LV16
Description: Avalon wants to help his father restore Sparta to glory, and you may be able to help him do so, but it can be easy or difficult..................
Reward: Follower Avalon
Mission's Punishment: None (Avalonian Death)
Mission Time: The end of mission time in this world
Well, this task doesn't seem to be a very good feeling, as for the reward, Li Xiang feels like it's average, Avalon's strength is not very strong in Li Xiang's opinion, at least Li Xiang can kill Avalon in seconds now, but who knows what will become of the legion after Avalon accepts it? Maybe it will be strengthened?
And Li Xiang has always been a person, if he can add a teammate to himself this time, it would be very good, he doesn't need to have much strength, just need him to assist himself, after all, it is still very difficult to mix alone in the legion, so I am still very interested in rewarding Li Xiang with this follower.
As for that punishment, Li Xiang doesn't feel like a punishment, the only effect should be that Li Xiang can't get this follower, maybe this should be the benefit of Li Xiang forming a team alone, rewarding himself with a follower.
But the heart is heartbeat, this follower Li Xiang doesn't seem to be able to win the feeling, the difficulty of this task is the biggest point that Li wants to consider, the difficulty of this task fluctuates greatly, and it may not need any effort to complete it in a simple case, but if it is difficult, it is the same as the difficulty of this world, which means that the difficulty is basically impossible for Li Xiang to complete alone.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Xiang still decided to take this next task.
"Okay, go back and pack your things together, let's leave as soon as possible."
Li Xiang finally agreed to his request, Li Xiang is not an unkind lord, since Avalon wants to restore his father's glory so much, Li Xiang is naturally impossible to stop, and glory is a warrior's lifelong pursuit, you may be able to cut off the head of a warrior, but you must not insult the glory of a warrior.
Although Li Xiang is not a qualified fighter, he understands this mood very well, so after thinking about it for a long time, he still agreed to Avalon's request, if he didn't agree, maybe Avalon's life would be regretful for this matter.
Maybe he might die in this battle, but he at least tried, and whatever the outcome, we at least tried.
That's right, that's it, Li Xiangcai was either attracted by the legion's bullshit reward, or simply moved by Avalon's spirit.
"Then Aunt Lila, I'll leave later, and we can get over there earlier to find out what is going on in advance."
After letting Avalon go back and clean up, Li Xiang looked back at the worried Aunt Lila.
"Well, you have to be careful, don't rush up if it's too dangerous."
Aunt Lila took Li Xiang's hand and said with a cautious face.
Li Xiang nodded, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back alive." ”
"Go ahead."
Aunt Lila turned around and wiped the sand from the corner of her eye, yes, it's sand, it's too windy in the damn weather.
However, there was not a little wind at this time.
After saying goodbye to Aunt Lila, Li Xiang was ready to go to Avalon, and from the memories given by the legion, Li Xiang knew where his residence was.
Walking on the street, the few remaining residents will greet Li Xiang very warmly, and Li Xiang will also respond enthusiastically one by one, although Li Xiang is not a very enthusiastic person, but he feels a heartfelt enthusiasm from the hearts of these people, and that enthusiasm is like a fire that makes Li Xiang's heart warm up all of a sudden.
The place where Avalon and his father lived was a dilapidated house, his mother had died a few years ago, dying of illness, and in this era, once she was sick, she often relied on the gods, and Avalon's mother's health was not very good, and she still did not survive that illness after all.
Li Xiang entered the room through a somewhat low door, and in the room Avalon was sitting opposite his father, wearing Avalon's body........... A tin pants? It's the kind of big pants worn by 300 naked men, but it's different from the ones in the movie, they don't just really wear a big pants, there are still similar knee pads and hand pads in other places.
There was also a cool-looking leather armor on Avalon's body, but Li Xiang still saw his big pants at first sight, after all, that thing was too conspicuous, and it was difficult for Li Xiang not to find it.
And beside Avalon, there is a short sword and a spear, which are similar to what Li Xiang saw before, but now these two seem to look a little better quality, and the workmanship is more exquisite, even if there is rust in some places, it can't hide the sharpness of these weapons, Li Xiang found that the sharpness of the short sword seems to be comparable to a blue weapon, you must know that this is just a rusty weapon.
On the other side, it is a round shield, this shield is similar to what Li Xiang saw in the movie, but this shield is much thicker and heavier than what he saw in the movie, and it is also much wider, this weight is not a problem at all for Spartan warriors with a strength of more than twenty points, looking at that shield Li Xiang honestly did not have the certainty of unfolding a knife.
Avalon's father was sitting in a chair, his legs paralyzed by an illness a few years ago, and although he was not completely paralyzed, it was difficult to maintain normal activities, and it was not for this reason that he would not have been able to let his son fulfill his wishes.
Si, seeing this, do you feel that Avalon's background has a very familiar feeling, isn't this kind of character who lost his mother and was still very powerful before his father's physical injury a template for the protagonist? Many of the protagonists are born in tragedy, but for the time being, Li Xiang has not found the potential similar to the protagonist from Avalon, as we all know, the protagonist has the aura of the protagonist, that is, the favor of world consciousness.
After several world observations, Li Xiang can barely judge whether he is the protagonist or not, and the Avalon in front of him is obviously not, and it seems that not every miserable person will become the protagonist.
"My lord, he'll get rid of you."
After discovering that Li Xiang came in, Avalon's father made a chest hammer action at Li Xiang, although Li Xiang didn't know this action, but he felt that it should be respect for others, and warriors generally like to do this, so Li Xiang also beat his chest slightly to show that he understood.
"Yes."
In fact, Li Xiang wanted to refuse in his heart, but Li Xiang had already accepted this task, it would feel strange if he said such a thing, and he really wanted to complete this task, and Avalon's father's instructions Li Xiang could naturally complete it.
But to be honest, Li Xiang actually has no bottom in his heart to complete this task, he is not sure to complete this task, Li Xiang wants to accept this task for a large reason, on the one hand, because the punishment of this task is not very big, if the punishment is very large, Li Xiang may not choose.
Li Xiang doesn't think that he can choose super difficult tasks like those protagonists, and then 'coincidentally' complete them, just kidding, Li Xiang never thought that he had the ability of the protagonist, so it was better to be cautious in doing things.
But after receiving the task, Li Xiang found that this task may not be so simple, although Li Xiang did not find any pits for the time being, but his intuition told Li Xiang that this task would not be so simple, but unfortunately he had already gotten on the thief ship and could only continue.
The whole process was actually Avalon's father explaining things to him, in short, it was the inheritance of will, and after getting these things done, Li thought that they had officially embarked on the road to Sparta.
